I don't understand the question. I don't have any pants left except the one pair of shorts thhat I wear to work and the motorcycle riding pants I wear over my kilt when I'm on my bike. As far as I'm concerned the most perfect pair of tailored pants is a kilt!

For me there is no choice. I have neither pants (sorry, trousers!!) nor shorts, and I certainly would not waste my money on buying any - no matter how fabulous the quality of tailoring!

The moment I get my first kilt I am going to BURN MY GOSH DARN TROUSERS! Ahem. Seriously. I am going to burn them and send them to Trouser Hell. Die die die you evil piece of fabric! Fie and shame on you, ye foul destroyer of men.
One day, I might heal. One day if I am lucky. But God as my witness, I will never go trousered again!
If it's a Formal event, here's what the answer should be:
"The most important thing to remember when wearing Highland evening dress is that it represents a proud heritage and a proud people. Whilst one can take certain sartorial liberties, they should not be so outrageous as to offend more conventional guests!
There's that darned "Know Your Tartan" mentality again. Shall we add "Know When to Wear You Iffy Kilt" thought to the list?
